A perfectly balanced noble Malt.

Royal Lochnagar distillery sits in the Highlands near Balmoral Castle at the foot of the Cairngorn mountains. Profiting from the pure waters of the Scarnock springs sits the distillery, their Single Malt has been a favorite of royals around the world after Queen Victoria and Prince Albert visited the distillery in 1848. This was the first-ever royal distillery visit! Their widely beloved bottles are known as delicate Highland malts with notes of light toffee.

Every year, Diageo launches their collection of Special Releases. In 2021, the theme was Legends Untold: untold stories of iconic distilleries. Royal Lochnagar 16 Year Old 2021 Special Release is a noble Malt that’s bursting with aromas of orange zest and green apple. The rich and creamy palate is perfectly balanced with barley-sugar and luscious fruit acidity. Adding a drop of water will awaken the flavors of white grapes. The finish is long and bright.

Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
First-class Whiskies are taxed not only by the state but also by the angels. This refers to the 4% of Whisky that evaporates from the barrels every year, a phenomenon known as the angel’s share.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
Nearby Balmoral Castle was a summer retreat to Queen Victoria, who enjoyed skipping out on her responsibilities for a ride down to the stillhouse. Smart woman.
